In his former position as head of correctional colony No 1 in Novopolotsk, Andrei Palchik has been responsible for and participated in the systematic practice of torture, ill-treatment and abusive punishments, including prolonged and repeated use of solitary confinement, against the political prisoners and other citizens detained in that penal colony, notably in the wake of the 2020 presidential election and the ensuing peaceful protests. As head of that penal colony, Andrei Palchik is not only responsible for ordering and supervising these abuses, but has a documented track record of personal involvement in acts of torture and violence against prisoners. During Andrei Palchik’s administration from 2017 until Mar 2023, correctional colony No 1 in Novopolotsk has become ill-famed for its extremely harsh detention conditions and the ill-treatment applied to the prisoners, many of them leading political activists and civil society representatives, detained for their opposition to President Lukashenka’s regime. After his transfer from Penal Colony No 1, Palchik continues to hold an active high-ranking position at another detention facility and therefore he continues to serve the repressive system. He is therefore responsible for serious violations of human rights and for the repression of the civil society in Belarus.
Former head of correctional colony No 1 in Novopolotsk
Dans le cadre de ses anciennes fonctions de chef de la colonie correctionnelle no 1, située à Navapolatsk, Andrei Palchik a été responsable d’une pratique systématique de la torture, de mauvais traitements et de peines abusives, y compris le recours prolongé et répété à l’isolement cellulaire, et y a participé, contre les prisonniers politiques et les autres citoyens détenus dans cette colonie, en particulier à la suite de l’élection présidentielle de 2020 et des manifestations pacifiques qui s’en sont suivies. En tant que chef de cette colonie pénitentiaire, non seulement Andrei Palchik est responsable d’avoir ordonné et supervisé ces violations, mais il est prouvé qu’il a été personnellement impliqué dans des actes de torture et de violence à l’encontre de prisonniers. Sous la direction d’Andrei Palchik, de 2017 à mars 2023, la colonie correctionnelle no 1, située à Navapolatsk, a acquis une réputation funeste pour ses conditions de détention extrêmement dures et pour les mauvais traitements infligés aux prisonniers, nombre d’entre eux étant des militants politiques de premier plan et des représentants de la société civile détenus en raison de leur opposition au régime du président Loukachenka. À la suite de son transfert de la colonie pénitentiaire no 1, Palchik continue d’occuper activement des fonctions importantes dans un autre centre de détention et continue donc de servir le système répressif. Il est donc responsable de graves violations des droits de l’homme et de la répression de la société civile en Biélorussie.
